Wednesday team news: No Kulusevski but starts for Bueno and Bailey

Four more Double Gameweek 19 matches take place on Wednesday evening, split over GMT kick-off times of 19:30, 19:45 and 20:00.

Harry Kane (£11.6m) is the only significantly-owned player taking part tonight and it’s no surprise to see him start for Spurs. Eric Dier (£5.2m) is one of two changes, with Oliver Skipp (£4.3m) replacing the suspended Yves Bissouma (£4.7m).

That means Dejan Kulusevski (£7.9m) is still missing with a muscle injury. As for Crystal Palace, it’s the same XI that beat Bournemouth 2-0.

Elsewhere, Nottingham Forest are also unchanged, meaning that Dean Henderson (£4.7m) and Morgan Gibbs-White (£5.5m) start but Neco Williams (£4.0m) has to settle for a bench role.

It’s a huge bottom-of-the-table clash for them and hosts Southampton, who have lost five successive matches. Three changes see Romain Perraud (£4.3m) get back into Nathan Jones’ starting XI, as do Romeo Lavia (£4.5m) and Sekou Mara (£5.3m).

At Elland Road, Leeds United make two alterations to the team which picked up a goalless draw at Newcastle United. Budget midfielder Crysencio Summerville (£4.3m) replaces Jack Harrison (£5.8m), with Marc Roca (£4.8m) in for Adam Forshaw (£4.4m).

Visitors West Ham United begin the night in 17th place and have made four changes from the poor home defeat to Brentford. Aaron Cresswell (£4.8m) and Said Benrahma (£5.6m) have to make do with a drop to the bench.

Meanwhile, World Cup winner Emiliano Martinez (£4.9m) makes his return to Aston Villa’s goal, despite the clean sheet of Robin Olsen (£3.9m). Poland’s Matty Cash (£4.6m) also enters proceedings, whilst it’s another start up front for Leon Bailey (£4.5m).

New Wolverhampton Wanderers loanee Matheus Cunha (£5.5m) has arrived from Atletico Madrid but will only feature as a substitute tonight. It’s an unchanged team from Gameweek 18, meaning another start for Hugo Bueno (£3.9m).

      Messi wouldn’t get a trophy at spurs

    2. NZREDS
      • 10 Years

      Certainly not this season. Rubbish performance so far

    3. Revival

      Son and Kane both look disengaged

        That aged well.

        2. Mirror Man
            1 year, 5 months ago

            United and Bayern are his only chances of winning the Champions League.

      2. Kevin and Perry go
        • 3 Years

      Kane is a shadow of the player he was years ago.

      Just waiting for a penalty.

      1. NZREDS
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Yep as a fantasy asset this week my only hope is they get a penalty the way this is going

      2. bso

        Really bad. Ridiculous that I still have him.

        1. circusmonkey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 5 months ago

          It's funny reading in game comments on delay.

      3. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Send him to Utd and cash in

      4. TheTinman
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Agree. He was rubbish in the world cup

        1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 5 months ago

          Bottled it

      5. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        This dumb post went well

    8. FantasyTony
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 5 months ago

      Scamacca and Paqueta are ballers. So sad to see them rot under Moysey.

    9. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 5 months ago

      WTF has happened with Son?!?!

      1. NZREDS
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Horrific - I wonder what his ownership is now? Probably just the dead teams

      2. The Big Fella
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Asked the same thing earlier. Quite sad. Used to be an amazing player

        1. Firminooooo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 5 months ago

      3. TheTinman
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        He'll get his zip back I think. Could be an all manner of reasons. It's hard to tell.

        Doesn't suit Contes tactics
        Family problems
        Relationship problems
        Loss of confidence
        Niggling injury
        Fallen out with a teammate

      4. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        I held him from GW1 in Draft because it's draft... and it's Son. He'll come good eventually... Right? Wrong.

        I only play that on the side with randomers but finally sold him this week. Showing no signs of anything...

        1. Wild Rover
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 5 months ago

          Didn’t he score a hatty from the bench last time everyone wrote him off?

      5. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Son xG from this season from 14 starts = 3.67

        Son xG from 35 starts in 21/22 = 15.82.

        The Son/Kane partnership not working has basically destroyed his output

      6. teknicolourfox
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 5 months ago

        Agree, behind Aguero he's my second favourite PL player...

        Spurs have ruined him.

        1. Wild Rover
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 5 months ago

          Lol. So which team was he great at then? 😆

      Awoniyi down

      1. TheTinman

      Premiums suck

      1. Bobby Digital

      2. NZREDS
        • 10 Years

        Amen! Besides haaland naturally

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 5 months ago

          Haaland is above premium status, we probably need a new term just for him.

          1. NZREDS
            • 10 Years
            1 year, 5 months ago

            Haha this is true. His price next season will be out the gate but still worth

    12. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years

      Kane to fodder and push money into midfield

      1. RICICLE

      Ofc the only player that can hurt my rank scores. Darwin just keeps on being an awful asset, even when he's not playing.
